Than two thirds or 460 of the members of the new House of commons have now been i elected and the present parties stand i almost As they were at dissolution. The unionists who last week expected to gain at least 20 seats thus far have won but. Three from the government coalition. Outside of the defeat of Timothy Healy nationalist in his old constituency North Louth which is attributed to Cardinal Logue who last Jan uary voted for Healy prohibiting the priests to participate in the election to Day s results did not produce any Surprise unless it was in the Fai ure of the liberals to recapture Denbigh. The result in this Welsh Boroug i la characteristic of the whole election. W. Ormsby Gore won the sealant january by eight votes and to Day he increased his majority by one vote although the polling on both Frewen has offered his seat for Cork to or. Healy but Healy has declined for he intends to try to upset i the election Richard Hazelton nationalist alleging illegal practices on the part of his opponents. Two members of the Cabinet Premier Asquith and Reginald Mckenna first lord of the admiralty were in to Day s contest but the outcome to or. Asquith s constituency will not be known until to Morrow. Or. Mckenna obtained a re election in Monmouthshire North although he was unable personally to take part n the Campaign because he recently underwent an operation. The Liberal majorities in Lancashire continued to fall today without any increase in the unionist vote which shows that Many Liberal supporters stayed away from the polls the unionists consider tills As the first sign of a wholesale desertion of the govern ment and that the next time the deserters will vote the unionist ticket. The most optimistic of unionists now i have no Hope of making serious in roads in the government majority. Their leaders persist however that the election was unnecessary that the result amounts to a vote of ack of Confidence and that with the nationalists and the exacting the fullest Price for their support it will be impossible for the Cabinet to re main in Power. To this the liberals reply that the unionists after the january election insisted that the government had received simply a mandate on the budget land that the election was not decisive on the question of the status of the House of lords. Now they add both parties the House of lords in the forefront and even a reduced coalition majority will justify them in proceeding with the veto Bill and. If necessary in asking King Georges guarantees to insure its passage. Litt e now remains to be done to Complete the nomination to All the seats in the House of commons.
